If you are Jay Johnson that image should be the foundation of your program from here on.

Arguably the biggest star on your team...in a moment where it would have been completely reasonable for him to excitedly run to the mound to celebrate...selflessly remains at the dugout to help an injured and far lesser known player get to the mound with everyone else to celebrate with his teammates.

I don't think anyone ever did, but if a person/GM had even the slightest of concerns about Skenes's character, that act eliminated all of those. Skenes didn't do that for a photo-op or to go viral on social media. He simply did it because it was the right thing to do....even though he knew it meant he was going to be the last person to get to the celebration because of it.

I wish they would put a few of these up in Birmingham just to rub it in their noses.

Skenes is a top guy, I would say the service taught him that but he seems like he was that kinda guy his whole life
